And it also works for two AA Visa cards or two AA Amex cards. We know that, because some people in this thread:

got that to happen by accident (because of a techincal issue in their apps), and they ended up getting two Visa cards and getting the bonus on both and/or getting two Amex cards and getting the bonus on both.
This question keeps coming up more than once a week (in different threads)!!!
Banks don't know how you personally plan to use the cards, and some people legitimately want two cards of the same type to use for different types of expenses they want to keep separate (but, say, they want both to be Visa because of Amex's lower acceptance). So banks assume you may have a legitimate reason for wanting two cards.
